An amusing incident occurred last
week at j. w. Stover's butchering.
That genteman's hogs which generally
weigh very heavy, had been duly dis
patched, dressed and the meat was
ready 10 be put away when Slower re-
quested Mr.. III. III Weiser to salt down
the hams and season the sausages.
w elSeT UdSleIItu W dlOCiu W lhlo ith-
portant job and as told went over into
Stover's store room to get the necessary
salt. He Sdlted the meat and sausages
ani everything went along smoothly
until the head butcher took occasion to
taste the fresh sausage and pass judre-
mcnt. Maize smacked his lips and
thought the sausages tasted unusually
sweet. The matter was further inves-
tigated and it was discovered that the
hams were sugar cured and the
sausages had been given good dose of
granulated sugar. Then it dawned
upon Mr.. Weiser that he must have
gotten a hold of the wrong barrel, and
there was tableau.

weather the writer took flying trip TO
